Didn't Want To Say Goodbye Lyrics
In a room draped in blue
I am thinking of you
I am tired, I can’t sleep
And for you I will weep
In a flash, you are gone
Yet around me life is calm
I cannot understand
Is this part of the plan?
I get cards with bouquets
But they can’t take your place
I have dreams about us
But I always wake up
I can ask all I please
I can beg down on my knees
For a reason, for a sign
But these answers I won’t find
And I will weep
Can you hear me?
Can’t you tell me why?
I’ll go on without you
And what’s left for me to do
But to stay where I am
In my world of pretend
And I won’t know until I die
If my faith was but a lie
‘Til then you’ll hear it in my cry
I didn’t want to say goodbye to you
I am thinking of you
I am tired, I can’t sleep
And for you I will weep
Yet around me life is calm
I cannot understand
Is this part of the plan?
But they can’t take your place
I have dreams about us
But I always wake up
I can beg down on my knees
For a reason, for a sign
But these answers I won’t find
Can you hear me?
Can’t you tell me why?
And what’s left for me to do
But to stay where I am
In my world of pretend
If my faith was but a lie
‘Til then you’ll hear it in my cry
I didn’t want to say goodbye to you

I believe Ari wrote this song in response to the events of 9/11.
A straight forward, but very beautiful, lament about the death of a loved one.
